excellent mountI've had this mount and the venom on my ar for the last 1900 rounds. Not a single problem with the dot or the mount. It has very solid lockup for a quick release mount. Vortex continues to bring great products at a competitive price point. Thanks guys.

Only mount for any Vortex Red dot!I love this mount, I have used it on multiple AR platforms and absolutely love it. I hope to add a few more to my collection, but I definitely won't be buying any other type of mount for any of my Vortex glass!

Great Venom MountBought this mount to use with my Vortex Venom. The Venom and this mount are mounted on my Nordic Components 9mm PCC rifle that I am using for competition. Highly recommend this combo.

Great productFits perfect along with the Vortex Venom optic on a SIg MPX.

Will this mount work with the razor? It looks as if the the additional mounting shim that comes with the razor might facilitate the four pins in the corners of this riser.

Asked by: Sm90

This mount will not work with the Razor, you would want this riser: http://www.vortexoptics.com/product/razor-red-dot-ar15-mount-with-quick-release-lever.

I have a Venom and the riser. However the supplied screws, that came with the red dot, do not fit in the riser. Can you advise the specs for the screws form mounting into the mount?

Asked by: Grizzly

There should be two sets of screws that come with the Venom, if neither set works you can give us a call at 800-426-0048 ext 6 and we can get you the correct screws.

I'm shooting a Spike's Tactical M4 Carbine with fixed front sight. If I mount a Venom red dot on this riser, will it be high enough for me to co-witness the red dot on the front sight?

Asked by: Buck

This riser will mount the Venom at lower 1/3 co-witness height so you will be able to use your iron sights through the bottom portion of the optic.

Hello, I purchased this mount for a Venom, I received it quickly, thanks, but can't figure out how to attach the Venom to the mount, is there another adapter i should have ordered?

Asked by: a mounting question

You'd need to take off the standard rail adapter and put it onto this riser as it is a direct bolt mount. You'll then use the included mounting screws to attach it to the riser. Call us if you have any other questions and we'll walk you through it. 800-426-0048

Does this work with the Spitfire AR?

Asked by: Jim

That mount is designed to be used with the Venom and Viper red dots only. The Spitfire AR is designed with a mount already integrated, but if you are looking for a quick release mount, here is an option that would work: https://www.americandefensemanufacturing.com/view/product/107/
